About the Item

Stainless steel mirror, Semicircle by Theodora Alfredsdottir (Champagne) Materials: Mirror Dimensions: 50 x 50 cm Also Available: Circle, Rectangular in different colors (silver, black onyx and champagne), The collection consist of three types of stainless steel mirrors, in three different colours; silver, black onyx and champagne. The properties of the material defined the final outcome, where different surface treatments and the fact that it can be folded are used to create the function of the object and its character. These functional sculptures are born from simple ww-dimensional sketches out of paper, that then were translated into experimentation with the properties of stainless steel sheets. The first mirror to be developed in the series was the square, which started off as a challenge to transform a mirror-polished sheet into something with a bit more character, without adding or subtracting from its original form - therefore creating no waste. The design utilises how easily these sheets can be bent and manipulated and how different surface treatment changes their appearance and function. Each of the mirrors is laser cut and folded twice, and then the brushed section is finished off by hand. The project aims to increase general interest in the production of objects, make the understanding of materials and their transformation more accessible and increase knowledge of our immediate environment. This connection to the production of everyday objects aims to raise awareness and respect for resources and be reflected in increased consumer responsibility. Theodora Alfredsdottir is a product design studio based in London. Theodora is an Icelandic product designer. She holds a bachelor’s degree in product design from the Iceland Academy of the Arts (2012) and a master’s degree in Design Products from the Royal College of Art in London (2015). Storytelling through objects; Theodora’s work revolves around the narrative an object can inhabit and exploring ways of objectifying that narrative. She's interested in the way an object can act as documentation of its manufacturing process; a record of what went on between the machine, tools, craftsman and material as well as it can communicate its origin and former life. In short, the object creates its own factual narrative. That often leads to the discovery of unexpected qualities as well as it gives the user a subtle opportunity to reconsider our material world and explore value in a different way.
